Absentee

From far away I see you clearly

But can you say the same to me

I know you’re not inclined to listen to me

But we’re running out of time

Is it worth it

Am I worthy

Is it worth it

Am I worthy

You’re taking more than you give me

But who can blame the absentee

It means more than it’s meant to

Would things be different if you knew

Would words mess with the stillness

I don’t wanna ruin this

You say things that make me wonder

If you could ever open your mind

At this point we’re at an impasse

I know now i’ve gotta lead

Hope that you don’t overlook this

I need to lay it bear

If I could hear your thoughts in patterns

Maybe then there’d be no need

Is it worth it

Am I worthy

Is it worth it

Am I worthy

You’re taking more than you give me

But who can blame the absentee

It means more than it’s meant to

Would things be different if you knew

Would words mess with the stillness

I don’t wanna ruin this
